5 strategies to build employee
loyalty…….
----who needs disengaged employees?
- Communicate,
communicate and communicate again. An open-door policy and consistent
communications are vital to ensure employees are motivated to stay with
your business. Spread the word about where your company is going. Consider
communications vehicles such as regular face-to-face meetings where people
can give their input. And use informal settings such as breakfast meetings
and luncheons.
- Be an employer of
choice. Make your business environment an attractive one by giving
employees high-profile projects that will help them grow professionally.
Be creative with your development strategies and allow employees to do
on-site customer assignments, for example.
- Get feedback from
employees, even those who leave. Conduct exit interviews to find out why
people are leaving and what measures you can take to encourage them to
stay. Ensure your performance evaluation is a two-way process-in other
words, ask employees what they think of your company.
- Be innovative with
rewards and compensation; look at long-term rewards such as profit-sharing
and short-term rewards that involve personal or family life. If work is
taking your employees' personal time, for example, you could offer theatre
tickets for the entire family. Or make employees' lives a little easier by
offering perks such as dry-cleaning services and catering. Most
importantly, always be equitable with salaries to create a work
environment that fosters fairness.
